SCENIC FLOAT TRIP
season mid April through late October
(minimum - 2 - persons)

This stretch of the Rio Grande River offers 1 1/'2 to 2 1/2 hours relaxing pleasure in a secluded pastural settings with an abundance of wild life and riverside flora. We have sighted bald and golden eagles, blue herons, a variety of wild ducks, red tailed hawks, coyotes and black bear, as well as about 40 species of bird life on these river trips. In the Fall, the Rio Grande' cottonwood trees turn brilliant golden hues, against the backgrounds of a slow-moving river and a crystal blue sky. Many artists, such as oil painters, watercolorists and photographers, have taken this trip and experienced the tranquil beauty of Nature and the River.

The river float is calm and less crowded than other 'whitewater' stretches of the Rio. This river trip hence offers pleasure for all ages of fun seekers. All participants are welcome - adventurers from two year olds to ninety year olds. The quiet stretches of the river allow both kids and adults to try their hand at the oars of our comfortable fourteen foot rubber rafts. On warmer days, we encourage you to stop, sunbathe and swim in our 'favorite swimming hole' on the Rio. We provide soft drinks and snacks - but gourmet picnics complete to the 'chilled champagne' can be arranged.
